Biography[[edit] | [edit source]]

The Kraals made an android duplicate of Adams, which at one point went random — walking through the woods like a man in a trance, with its right arm twitching spasmodically, before jumping off a cliff into a quarry.

When the Fourth Doctor arrived at the Space Defence Station, he recognised Adams, who asked to see his pass. The Doctor did so and, before going inside, asked Adams if this was the first time the corporal had seen him today. When Adams confirmed this was indeed the case, the Doctor told him if he saw the Doctor again today, he was to report it to him immediately — an instruction which understandably left Adams somewhat puzzled. (TV: The Android Invasion)
